The Nano-Tera Workshop on the Next Generation MOSFET Compact Models15-16 December, 2011, EPFL

The BSIM group recently proposed BSIM6 as the new MOSFET compact modelto eventually replace BSIM3, BSIM4 and PSP for next generation bulkCMOS processes. Trying to take advantage of the charge based featuresof EKV, the BSIM research team from University of California,Berkeley, led by Prof. Chenming Hu and the EKV modeling team at EPFL,led by Prof. Christian Enz, decided to jointly develop the new BSIM6compact model.

The BSIM EKV partnership has been officially announced by Profs. Huand Enz at the last ESSDERC-ESSIRC Conference during the MOS-AKWorkshop <http://mos-ak.org/helsinki/#BSIM-EKV>. The Nano-TeraWorkshop on the Next Generation MOSFET Compact Models will convene allthe BSIM and EKV researchers as well as the experts from the industryto give an update on the latest status of BSIM6 and EKV (andeventually other models as well) to the modeling and designercommunity.
